Thank you, but I'm not done my Ph.D. yet - I was just working on my Ph.D while finishing up my other M.A., hopefully I'll be able to defend my thesis by the end of this year (that's my plan).

Thanks for the well wishes, everyone, you really know how to make a gal feel special!

No, I haven't. What kind of car did he buy?
Well, he went to the dealership and bought the fastest car he could find.

The he went home and painted racing stripes down the middle. When he was done with that, he put a big ol' S on the side.

His friend the slug came by just as he was finishing and said "Hey Snail, nice car! But what's the paint job for?"

The snail got in the car, gunned the engine, and said "So when I drive down the street, everyone will have to say 'Boy, would you look at that S-car go!'"

Sad to hear that doggie! Bloke's dad is getting near the end too. I worry that he doesn't have anything to look forward to. As we speak bloke is talking to him on the phone making plans that old salty may not be there for.

I'm putting in some that I put in ages ago.

Here's one.

Renee is a very caring lady who spends a lot of her spare time visiting and helping sick members of her synagogue. Her car is also well known in the community because it’s decorated all over with lots of Hebrew decals and bumper stickers showing the Jewish charities she helps.


One day, as she is driving to one of the care homes she regularly visits, her car runs out of petrol and splutters to a stop. "Oy veh," she says to herself, "and just when I’m late."
Fortunately, she notices a petrol station only a few hundred yards away, so she walks to the station to get help. "Hi," Renee says to the man behind the till, "I’ve run out of petrol and I’m hoping you can lend me your petrol can. I’ll pay you for the petrol I use and I’ll return your can as quickly as possible."
The attendant replies, "I’m sorry, lady, but I’ve lent out my one and only can not more than 5 minutes ago. I’m expecting it back in about half an hour, so if you want, you can wait here for it."


But as she’s behind schedule, Renee goes back to her car to find something that she could use to fill with petrol. Then, what mazel (luck), she notices the bedpan she always keeps handy in case of patient need. So she takes the bedpan to the petrol station, fills it and carries it back to her car.


Two men are passing by and watch her pour in the petrol. One turns to the other and says, "If that car starts, I'm turning Jewish

Yea!! on the new house. It's miserable to have to be up and doing things when all you want to do is curl up, feel better, and read. I hope you feel better soon.

My siamese would not let me take a bath or shower by myself. She would always be right there in the water with me. Then whenever we had popcorn, Doritos, pepper jack cheese, or peppers, she hide and wait until you weren't looking and steal it.
